I use this snippet in my /etc/rc.local script:

ulimit -n 8192
/usr/local/bin/tor -f /usr/local/etc/tor/torrc

It seems to do pretty well for a middleman node.  I think that's as
far as it can be pushed, but it's also been a while since I've read
the manpage for ulimit.  For what it's worth, it has never (to mine
memory) caused the box in question to lock up from resource
starvation, so if you've got a decent amount of RAM in the machine it
should not cause any problems.
